Almost a month since the release of the Karan Johar directorial Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani and yet we can't get over the peppy track What Jhumka? Guess what, television actress Rupali Ganguly can't either. A bit late to the trend but the Anupamaa star treated her fans on Tuesday to a video of herself, shaking a leg to the hook step of the song What Jhumka alongside actress Pranali Rathod. While fans flocked to her profile to heap praises on the actress, this special performance also caught the eye of director Karan Johar, who had the sweetest response.
Sharing the reel on his Instagram feed, Karan Johar wrote, "When Anupama does What Jhumka - that's truly the final stamp of validation! Thank you, Rupali Ganguly, my mom loves you and so do millions of your fans."
Rupali Ganguly replied almost instantly, "Aw, truly humbled and overwhelmed by this Karan Johar. Would be an honour to meet your mom someday....till then my pranaam and love to her ."
